Definitions
- This invention relates to the field of fixed electronic payment terminals, and more particularly to fixed electronic payment terminals that have a certain degree of autonomy with regards to their electrical power supply.
- the commonly provided solution consists in proposing an electronic device that includes an autonomous power supply on a battery able to take over from the main power supply in the event the latter is cut off.
- the battery is not dimensioned to allow for long autonomy as in the case of a piece of mobile equipment, but rather to allow for the proper operation of the equipment during voltage clips in the mains power or possibly to allow the equipment to shut down correctly, without damaging its current logic state for example.
- the type of backup power supply is integrated into the devices that propose this type of service when they are manufactured.
- a battery even of limited capacity, remains a non-negligible cost with respect to the total cost of an electronic terminal.
- the autonomy management electronics remain substantially the same regardless of the capacity of the battery. This generates an extra cost which can be prohibitive for a function which can be reduced to resisting voltage clips. Certain users of fixed terminals can as such not be interested by such autonomy, preferring to retain a conventional solution at a lesser cost.
- An exemplary aspect of the present disclosure relates to a fixed electronic terminal comprising at least one location intended to reversibly receive an electronic autonomy management system of the terminal.
- an aspect of the disclosure proposes a new and inventive solution for enabling the transformation of a fixed electronic terminal into a fixed/mobile electronic terminal that resists to untimely mains power supply cut-offs as well as offering sufficient autonomy in order to authorise transactions in portable mode, while still maintaining an optimum cost for the solution.
- an aspect of the disclosure provides that the autonomy management system be entirely optional, with all of the hardware components required for this onboard/autonomous power supply being installed on board the terminal only when the benefit of this functionality is desired.
- the cost of the “bare” fixed terminal, i.e. without the electronic autonomy management system, remains as such equivalent to that of a standard fixed electronic terminal.
- an aspect of the disclosure proposes a fixed electronic terminal having a location that makes it possible to connect, in a reversible manner, an electronic autonomy management system of the terminal.
- this electronic autonomy management system of the terminal can include two main elements/modules consisting of a battery and an electronic module that allow for the proper operation of the terminal when it is powered by the battery.
- the terminal comprises a removable trap door that at least partially covers the location when it is positioned in the terminal.
- the terminal has a removable trap door suited to protect the location intended to receive the electronic autonomy management system.
- this protection relates to the connecting equipment intended for the connection to the terminal of the electronic parts of this management system.
- the terminal further comprises means for fastening a removable retaining part that covers at least a portion of the electronic autonomy management system when it is positioned in the terminal, with the means for fastening cooperating with complementary means for fastening on the retaining part in a locking position of the retaining part in the terminal, with the means for fastening and/or the complementary means for fastening being inaccessible in the locking position.
- a retaining part is placed on the electronic autonomy management system in order to allow for its locking in the terminal once the latter is transformed into a fixed/mobile terminal.
- the user can easily transform the fixed terminal into a fixed/mobile terminal by proceeding himself with the inserting and the connecting of the electronic autonomy management system via for example a removable cover of the terminal.
- a succession of removals and settings into place of the electronic system can lead for example to a degradation of the electronic connectors, and therefore to malfunctions of the device over time.
- this embodiment of the disclosure provides that the autonomy management system by locked to the terminal during the normal use of it, as such protecting the electronic connecting equipment.
- the retaining part can easily be fastened onto all or a portion of the electronic autonomy management system, but once it is fixed in the terminal, the means for fastening, and therefore for removing, that cooperate with the complementary means of the terminal, are no longer accessible if the terminal is not disassembled.
- this retaining part may cover only a portion of the electronic autonomy management system, advantageously, the electronic portion of this autonomy management system.
- the battery remains accessible for easy disassembly, with this wearing part able indeed to require several changes during the lifecycle of the terminal transformed into a fixed/mobile terminal.
- the means for fastening are means for clipping able to cooperate with the complementary means for fastening onto the retaining part.
- the retaining part can be set in place very easily by the user via a simple clipping onto the structure of the electronic terminal, with the means of clipping of the retaining part and of the terminal being rendered inaccessible without disassembling the terminal.
- the means for clipping correspond to one or several ergots cooperating with one or several slots, with the non-deformable portion of a clip being present on the terminal and the deformable portion on the retaining part.
- the terminal is an electronic payment terminal.
- An aspect of the disclosure also relates to an electronic autonomy management system of an electronic terminal such as described hereinabove, comprising at least one battery and at least one electronic autonomy management module of the terminal.
- an aspect of the disclosure also relates to the electronic system that makes possible the transformation of the fixed terminal into a fixed/mobile terminal, with this system comprising at least one battery and an electronic autonomy management module.
- the management module comprises all of the hardware components required to manage the autonomy of the terminal, i.e. the management of the recharging of the battery when the mains power supply is present as well as the generating of all of the regulated voltages required for the operation of the terminal in autonomous mode.
- the cost of the fixed terminal devoid of the “autonomy” option remains minimal and similar to that of a standard fixed terminal.
- the electronic autonomy management system further comprises a retaining part of the electronic autonomy management module.
- the autonomy management system comprises a retaining part of the management module allowing for the locking of the electronic autonomy management module under normal conditions of use of the terminal transformed into a fixed/mobile terminal, in such a way as to limit the manipulations of the electronic autonomy management system in order to limit the risks of degradation.
- an aspect of the disclosure also relates to a method for updating a terminal such as described hereinabove, with the method comprising a step of integrating, into the electronic terminal, an autonomy management system such as described hereinabove.
- Such a method is in fact a method for transforming a fixed terminal to a fixed/mobile terminal.
- an aspect of the disclosure allows the user to carry out this operation very simply when he so desires during the lifecycle of his fixed terminal via a simple connection of the autonomy management system to his fixed terminal, thanks to the location provided for this purpose in the electronic terminal.
- the step of integrating comprises a sub-step of connection to the electronic terminal of the battery of the autonomy management system and of the electronic autonomy management module of the autonomy management system.
- the method of transformation of the fixed terminal into a fixed/mobile terminal makes it possible on the one hand the connection of a battery and on the other hand the connection of an electronic autonomy management module. As such, the user can manage the battery differently, as a wearing part, and the electronic module.
- the step of integrating also comprises a sub-step of locking of the retaining part in the electronic terminal, when the connection sub-steps are carried out.
- the method of transformation of the fixed terminal into a fixed/mobile terminal also comprises a sub-step of setting up a retaining part allowing for the locking of the electronic autonomy management module under normal conditions of use of the terminal transformed into a fixed/mobile terminal.
- FIG. 1 is a view of a portion of a payment terminal having a location intended to reversibly receive an electronic autonomy management system according to an embodiment of the disclosure
- FIG. 2 shows an example of a removable trap door covering at least partially the location intended to reversibly receive an electronic autonomy management system according to an embodiment of the disclosure
- FIG. 3 shows an example of an electronic autonomy management module in place in the terminal according to an embodiment of the disclosure
- FIG. 4 shows an example of a retaining part covering and locking the electronic autonomy management module according to an embodiment of the disclosure
- FIG. 5 shows an example of fastening of the retaining part covering and locking the electronic autonomy management module according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
- the general principle of the technique described proposes a fixed electronic terminal that has the possibility of being transformed into a fixed/mobile terminal capable of correctly concluding a transaction in progress during a main power supply cut-off as well as authorising transactions in portable mode, without increasing the base cost of the terminal in fixed mode.
- the solution according to various embodiments of the disclosure makes it possible to achieve this transformation by connecting an electronic autonomy management system to the fixed terminal.
- the connecting of the electronic autonomy management system can advantageously be reversible in order to allow for maintenance of the system and the changing of components where applicable.
- the electronic autonomy management system of the fixed terminal is comprised of two separate elements, i.e. on the one hand a battery used as a reservoir of electrical energy and on the other hand an electronic autonomy management module embarking the functions required for charging the battery as well as for generating the power supplied required by the terminal.
- the fixed electronic payment terminal ( 100 ) has a location ( 10 ) able to receive an electronic autonomy management system.
- the location ( 10 ) comprises a first housing/location ( 101 ) able to receive the battery, and a second housing/location ( 102 ) able to receive the electronic autonomy management module, the battery and the electronic module forming the electronic autonomy management system of the terminal.
- This electronic autonomy management module can be advantageously connected to the terminal via an inter-card connector ( 103 ) allowing for the exchange of all of the electrical signals between the two devices while still participating in the mechanical rigidity of the whole.
- the fixed electronic payment terminal ( 100 ) does not have any intrinsic elements specific to the management of the autonomy, contrary to “portable” terminals from prior art which are designed to integrate all of the autonomy management electronics (for example on the printed circuit of the electronic payment terminal) and to receive a battery that may be removable.
- an electronic payment terminal according to various embodiments of the disclosure has at least one location intended to receive an electronic autonomy management system, as well as the connecting equipment elements required for the proper operation of the electronic payment terminal when it is transformed into a portable terminal (once connected to the electronic autonomy management system, i.e. the electronic autonomy management module and the battery for example).
- the electronic autonomy management module and the battery were therefore designed in such a way as to allow for the proper operation of the electronic payment terminal in portable mode.
- the battery can be accessed independently from the rest of the autonomy management system.
- the changing of this wearing part of the system can be carried out simply and without having to interfere with the electronic autonomy management module. Except in case of a breakdown problem, the latter is effectively intended to remain fixed once installed in the terminal.
- the terminal can have a fastener(s) for fastening ( 104 ) of a removable retaining part covering at least one portion of the electronic autonomy management system.
- the fastener cooperates with complementary elements present on the retaining part in order to fasten this last part.
- orifices ( 105 ) are also present in order to allow access to the complementary elements of fastening from the inside of the terminal once the retaining part is put in place. As such, the latter can be removed once the terminal is disassembled.
- the removable trap door ( 201 ) covers the location ( 102 ) able to receive the electronic autonomy management module.
- the connecting equipment intended to ensure the transport of the electrical signals between the terminal and the electronic autonomy management module are protected during the period when the fixed electronic terminal is operating without the presence of the electronic autonomy management system.
- the owner of the terminal is assured that this connecting equipment will not be degraded the day when he chooses to invest in the “autonomy” option.
- the connection of the electronic autonomy management system to the electronic terminal will as such be optimal, minimising through the same the risks of a breakdown of the fixed/mobile electronic terminal.
- an example of a fixed electronic payment terminal according to an aspect of the disclosure to which an electronic autonomy management module ( 300 ) has been connected shall now be described.
- the user can very simply insert the electronic autonomy management module into the location ( 102 ) provided for this purpose.
- the location ( 101 ) able to receive the battery as well as the location ( 102 ) able to receive the electronic management module are easily accessible to the user via for example a removable cover of the terminal.
- the electronic management module ( 300 ) advantageously comprises all of the electronic components required for managing autonomy. This is then converters and regulators required for the correct charging of the battery when the terminal is powered by the mains, as well as those required for the generating of all of the power supply levels required by the onboard electronics in the terminal in order to operate correctly. As such, the cost of the fixed terminal in the absence of the “autonomy” option remains minimal and very close to that of a standard fixed terminal.
- the fixed terminal can be able to detect the presence of the electronic autonomy management system via an electronic signal delivered by the latter, allowing by the same for a direct operation of the fixed/mobile terminal once the user has inserted and connected the battery and the electronic management module. In this way, no skills in electronics are required of the user in order to transform his fixed terminal into a fixed/mobile terminal.
- the removable retaining part ( 401 ) that covers at least one portion of the electronic autonomy management system has fastener(s) for fastening that cooperate with those present on the electronic terminal in such a way that this retaining part cannot be removed without disassembling the electronic terminal.
- the retaining part can advantageously cover the autonomy management module, leading by the same to the locking of it once the retaining part is in place.
- the autonomy management module can no longer be easily removed by the same user. This makes it possible to guarantee a sustainable operation of the terminal by prohibiting the successive inserting and removing of the autonomy management module, which can cause its own degradation, or that of the connecting equipment of the terminal.
- the battery ( 400 ) is a wearing part for which the changing can be necessary during the lifecycle of the fixed/mobile terminal, it can be interesting to not cover it with such a retaining part so that the extraction of it remains easy, for example via a removable cover of the terminal.
- the removable retaining part ( 401 ) that covers at least one portion of the electronic autonomy management system has clip(s) for clipping that cooperate with those present on the electronic terminal. More precisely, according to this embodiment the O-shaped lug ( 500 ) present on the retaining part corresponds to the deformable portion of the clipping system although the simple lug ( 104 ) present on the electronic terminal corresponds to the complementary non-deformable portion. During the setting in place of the retaining part in the electronic terminal via a removable cover of the terminal for example, these two complementary lugs cooperate in such a way as to fix/lock the retaining part to the electronic terminal. Those skilled in the art shall then immediately understand in reference to FIG.
